Chapter 81

"Wha!?" Katarina stiffened up as I held her in my arms and not as an attack.

"I'm glad you're safe. Thank you for coming back to me." I said and nuzzled her hair.

"You... say some really embarrassing stuff sometimes."

"Don't take this from me."

"It's strange... is this an effect from my magic?" Katarina was mumbling something as she relaxed her body and I began checking her body.

After a quick search, it seemed like there truly was no hidden wounds and the wondrousness of magic awed me once again.

Despite the limitations of only being able to be used once a day, the sheer potency of its recovery left mine in the dust.

Well, for now that is.

"Okay, that's enough." Katarina seems to have suffocated a little as her face was a little red and she pointed behind me.

"Can't you see she's getting uncomfortable?" I turned but only found someone sitting with her eyes wide open, staring at something only she could see.
